Not content with merely launching The Junction’s buzziest new spot,PlayaCabana owner Dave Sidhu is opening a third location of his Mexican restaurant and tequila bar this May at 14 Dupont Street. Dubbed Playa Cabana Hacienda, the restaurant’s menu will echo those of Playa Cabana and Playa Cabana Cantina, but with an added selection of wood-smoked meats as well. Hacienda will be the chain’s largest incarnation, with a capacity of just under 140 seats spread over three floors and two patios (as at the Annex and Junction locations, the restaurant will take reservations through its website). Manager Matthew King tells us that if Hacienda is as successful as its predecessors, Toronto taco lovers could easily see a fourth Playa Cabana before long.
